Winchester Ophthalmology Debates – 18 January 2024
Let’s talk about Emerging Research on Existing Conditions.
Ophthalmic Consultants Nick Maycock and Nish Srikantha invite you to drop in after work and join them in Winchester for the first in a series of 5 informal and friendly interactive workshop events.
Their programme will take you through the ophthalmic specialties over the course of 2024, looking at and discussing new and emerging research on existing conditions, as a group in a relaxed and convivial setting.
Registration before the event is requested but not essential (last minute deciders very welcome!) but if you do register, we will send you the research papers we are planning to look at ahead of time so you can have a read through and prepare to join the discussion.
Food, drinks and CPD points will be available at each event
When: Thursday 18th January 2024 at 6pm
Where: The Winchester Stable, 31B The Square, Winchester, SO23 9EX
